My mission is meeting people wherever they are on their life’s path and helping them break the cycle of limiting and conditioned beliefs, to be able to get in touch with their higher selves through gentle guidance, encouragement and nurturing. By using your breathing (and other modalities) to focus your innate, conscious energy with purpose and direction.

I have written many meditations and practices I use, to not only incorporate and celebrate the diverse spectrum of intimate relationships, but to also tailor sessions to draw out my cilents’ uniqueness.  It is my joy, and honor to share these tools with you.

Origins

The first written records of Tantra, (meaning “the way” or “methods” in Sanskrit) date back 5000 years to India. It was then that an enlightened master named Shiva developed 112 methods or techniques of meditation. Vigyan Bhairav Tantra did this in answer to his wife Shakti’s questions about the meaning of it all. Practice of these meditations, are widely believed to be the path to spiritual enlightenment or super consciousness. Tantra has never become a religion or structured belief system, but it remains an ancient, mystic art. Shiva and Shakti are still celebrated today during annual festivals.

Shiva is the oldest God known to mankind. He is a paradoxical deity, as both the destroyer and restorer. Also known as the King of dance, and symbol of sensuality, he withholds and controls his sexual urges transmuting that power. It is believed his movements provide the energy that drives the universe. Grand phallic statues sometimes symbolize Shiva”s energy; this physical form of the male genitals is called a “lingam” in Sanskrit which translates to “Wand of light”.

Shakti is associated with creativity and passion. Shakti’s energy is viewed as the merging of powers emanating from several male Gods, and each person possesses it. The physical form of the female genitals is referred to as “yoni” meaning “sacred space”.

In Hinduism and Tantra there are as many as 88,000 focal points in the human body where psychic forces and bodily functions merge and interact. The word chakra relates to the seven major centers of spiritual energy in the human body according to yoga philosophy.  Shakti energy lies dormant within the lower body as a coiled serpent (Kundalini) that must be aroused or activated to reach spiritual liberation, by uniting with Shiva at the top of the head. Many times in my sessions, this means drawing a person”s energy up from the pelvic area to the heart or head, for more integrated and expanded experiences. Thusly, it derives the most in our connections with ourselves, and others.

While Tantra is the harmonious union of the male and female principles in all of us, it can be practiced alone or with a partner of any gender. Exploration of the Tantric path is a multi layered experience and it is different for everyone.
